I ended up using an old system and load windows server 2003 (overkill but I had a spare liscense). I have 3 partitions 1 to boot to second for applicatons third for all data (flac files) I remote desktop into it for maintenance and backup to a seperate computer on the network. I allow all systems to access it through the web interface. It is a very good idea to set your router to ALWAYS give the server the same IP address from your dhcp pool. that makes it easier for the various slim devices to access it. In my case I have a transporter, 4 slim devices and using dyndns I have a static IP that I can access from work allowing me to listen to my music at work.
>From chatting with others, if I didnt use win server I would go with ubunto. very solid solution Library now has over 15,000 files in it. Even running 5 devices at once the system works flawlessly. I love this product -- ScoobyMusic ------------------------------------------------------------------------ ScoobyMusic's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=7221 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=35806 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/audiophiles
